By: Justin Lafleur, Lehigh Sports Media Relations –Bethlehem, PA Kelsey Yenco is proud of her heritage. In fact, her Lehighsports.com bio has listed Italy as the place she’d like to visit. She can now cross that off her bucket list. Over this past winter break, Yenco traveled to Italy as part of a senior training pool trip, among those eligible for Italy’s national lacrosse program. It was an experience that…
Vermont will travel to Happy Valley this weekend to take on the Penn State Nittany Lions in their first match of the season. The two teams have not met since 2008, which ended in a Penn State victory. Vermont boasts of a sophomore with an incredible scoring ability. Ian Mackay was responsible for 42 points last year for the Catamounts. Vermont’s captains, Bryan Capone and Andrew Bucknavage, bring an experienced…
Saint Johns had the epitome of an up-and-down season in 2014 and their record reflected that as they finished the season 7-7. After alternating wins and losses for their first four games they won four out of their next five games until they dropped four of their last five games. The big slide at the end of the season meant no Big East tournament for the Red Storm and of…
Bethlehem, PA — According to news sources local to the Lehigh Valley of Pennsylvania, three Lehigh lacrosse players had a little too much fun and cost them dearly. Alex Eaton, David Telesco and Patrick Corbett were out on the town one night and decided to have a snowball fight. Unfortunately, some of the targets included moving vehicles, which is a small offense all its own due to distracting drivers. The…
The Buckeyes are gearing up for their inaugural appearance in the Big Ten. They had a decent showing in the ECAC last season, ending 6-7 overall. Even with the loss of two valuable seniors, Joe Muerer on defense and Greg Dutton in goal, the Buckeyes still look to the 2015 season with hope and determination. The scarlet and grey have chosen their captains to lead them to victory this season,…
@proctorpac on Twitter Photo Credit: Ian Neadle The Terps finished their last season in the ACC at 13-4 which is not a bad record in such a power house conference. This year they are in a newly formed BIG10 Conference with still a lot of big name schools and some up and comers. Sure they will still have their huge rivalry game against the always tough Johns Hopkins Blue Jays…
Kip Orban Midfielder, Princeton University 6’2, 200 pounds Drafted by the Charlotte Hounds Round 3, 19th overall 2014: Orban finished the season as the Tigers’ fifth leading point scorer as he scored 21 goals and handed out eight assists for a total of 29 points. Orban is a pure goal scorer who can stretch a defense with his cannon of a shot. He also has the ability to get his hands…
The Syracuse Orange have very high expectations this year. To get an idea of what these expectations are, their seniors are on the record using the phrase “championship or bust.” Nearly every player that goes to play for the Orange does so knowing that they want to compete for a national championship. The Orange were last in a championship game in 2013 when they lost to Duke and last year…
Photo Credit: LehighValleyLive.com Coming up this Saturday February 7 is the opener for both Lehigh and Marquette. There’s a lot of amplified following behind Lehigh this season, and Marquette still stands as a strong program also. I predict Marquette will be a bit off-beat to start 2015 as they don’t see their home turf until their fourth game of the season. Their first match-ups away are Lehigh, Hofstra and Richmond….
The Panthers proved to stalk their prey first half and attack second half, as they broke away from the Blue Hens in the third quarter of Sunday’s season-opening matchup to win 15-10. Both teams scored the same for the first two quarters: 3 goals in the first and 4 in the second. In the third period, Delaware was only able to find the back of the cage one time compared…
